Among The Wasps Silence is the first haiku collection by Eduardo Ribeiro. Here are gathered, within Zen threads, twelve dozen haiku of classic inspiration in homage to a tradition ranging from Basho to Santoka. However, haiku, as poetry, as Zen, are alive so don´t be surprised to find cars and plastic amidst flowers and cuckoos or a, sometimes dark, sense of humour twisting nature contemplation.
